Useful Information

Visiting the College

Visitors are welcome to wander round Pembroke’s grounds and view the Chapel. No entry fee is charged. As the College is the home and workplace to over 600 people we would request that people do not wander into any of the staircases. At certain times of the year, particularly in May and the first two weeks of June, the College is closed to visitors. If you are intending to bring a large party of visitors to the College please could you check with the Porters on duty first, who will let you know if it is a convenient time.

Members of the College are welcome to visit Pembroke at any time of the year, including during the exam season, although visitors during this time should take great care to respect the quietude.

Travelling to the College

If you are travelling to Pembroke we would advise that you take advantage of the city’s extensive public transport system, rather than travel by car, if at all possible. Unfortunately, no car parking facilities are available in the College.
